Linus Torvalds df34df483a Staging/IIO patches for 4.17-rc1
Here is the big set of Staging/IIO driver patches for 4.17-rc1.
 
 It is a lot, over 500 changes, but not huge by previous kernel release
 standards.  We deleted more lines than we added again (27k added vs. 91k
 remvoed), thanks to finally being able to delete the IRDA drivers and
 networking code.
 
 We also deleted the ccree crypto driver, but that's coming back in
 through the crypto tree to you, in a much cleaned-up form.
 
 Added this round is at lot of "mt7621" device support, which is for an
 embedded device that Neil Brown cares about, and of course a handful of
 new IIO drivers as well.
 
 And finally, the fsl-mc core code moved out of the staging tree to the
 "real" part of the kernel, which is nice to see happen as well.
 
 Full details are in the shortlog, which has all of the tiny cleanup
 patches described.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
 issues.
